Hi Mike,
You might be right there. I did a few test images on the weekend and they were very impressive. Awesome scope.
Here is a photo of it mounted ready for action with the TEC field flattener and the ML8300 camera:

The good news is the NJP mount handles it well and autoguiding gave nice round stars. I took a 15 minute Ha of Orion and it showed the Trap stars
with no core burnout!
Greg.
